Scrolling and Scrollbars
The following options are available for vertical scrolling.
n
On a touch screen, tap with one or two fingers and then drag to scroll. The text under your fingers
moves in the same direction as your fingers.
Important Scrolling with one finger has the following limitations: It does not work if you have
zoomed in, or when the onscreen keyboard is displayed, or when you are using the full-screen
touchpad.
n
Use the Horizon Client Tools to display the touchpad, tap the touchpad with two fingers, and then
drag to scroll.
n
Use the onscreen touchpad to move the mouse pointer and click scroll bars.
Zooming In and Out
As in other applications, pinch your fingers together or apart to zoom on a touch screen.
Window Resizing
If you use the full-screen touchpad to resize a window, touch and hold one finger at the corner or side of
the window and drag to resize.
If you use the regular-size virtual touchpad, touch and hold the left-click button while dragging the corner
or side of a window.
Sound, Music, and Video
If sound is turned on for your device, you can play audio in a remote desktop.
Using a Thin Client
How you interact with Windows user interface elements when Horizon Client is installed on a thin client
depends on the thin client model and the external input device you are using with the thin client. For more
information, see Using Horizon Client on a Thin Client.
Multitasking
You can switch between Horizon Client and other apps without losing a remote desktop or application
connection.
In a WiFi network, by default Horizon Client runs in the background indefinitely. In a 3G network,
Horizon Client suspends data transmission when you switch to another app. Data transmission resumes
when you switch back to Horizon Client.
The Horizon Client icon appears in the status bar when the app is running in the background and there is
a connection to a remote desktop. To switch back to Horizon Client, tap the icon in the status bar.
